What is Quality of Hire?
A talent acquisition metric that measures the value a new employee brings, typically assessed through performance, retention, manager satisfaction, and ramp-up time.
Why it matters in hiring
Quality of Hire comes up whenever teams compare candidates, set policy or report on people data. Getting the definition right keeps decisions consistent, which is the same reason springhire scores every applicant against the same criteria rather than on impression.
